RibsCombatLog

RibsCombatLog is a Hytale plugin designed to prevent players from avoiding PvP consequences by disconnecting during combat. When a player leaves the server voluntarily while tagged, they are automatically killed and their items are dropped at their location.

Features

• Combat Tagging - Players are tagged when they hit or get hit by another player.
• Essentials Plugins Compatibility - Prevents other plugins (like HyCommands or others essentials plugins) from overwriting blocked commands, ensuring they remain restricted during combat.
• Both Players Tagged - Both attacker and victim are tagged in combat.
• Combat Log Punishment - If a player disconnects while in combat, they are killed and their items are dropped.
• Configurable Duration - Combat tag duration is configurable (default: 15 seconds).
• Combat Enter/Leave Message - Shows messages when entering pvp and combat tag expires. This are customizable.
• Command Blocking - Blocks specified commands while in combat (e.g., /spawn, /teleport, /warp).
• Configurable Blocked Commands - List of blocked commands is configurable in config.json.

Config

When the plugin starts, it will create the following directory and file: <dataDirectory>/RibsCombatLog/config.json. The default value for the duration is 15 seconds.
